A high rate zinc/MCM-41/air cell

We report the performance characteristics of a high discharge rate zinc-air cell, assembled in a compact, monopolar and bipolar configurations. The use of inorganic MCM-41 membrane enables the construction of a thin, compact cell design with ease. MCM-41 consists of hexagonally-ordered nanopore str...
